Basic Information: Manufacturer: RADIATOR SPECIALTY COMPANY Address: 600 RADIATOR ROAD City, ST Zip: INDIAN TRAIL, NC Contact: Robert Geer Information Telephone Number: Emergency Contact: Rocky Mountain Poision Control Center Country: Emergency Telephone Number: Issue Date: 02/29/2008 Supersedes Date: 06/16/2003 II. Hazards Identification: EMERGENCY OVERVIEW Emergency Restrictions: Danger: Harmful or fatal if swallowed. Vapor harmful. Eye and skin irritant. Flammable. Contents under pressure. Level 2 Aerosol OSHA Regulatory Status This material is considered hazardous by the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR ). Potential Health Effects Route(s) of Entry: Ingestion, Inhalation, eye and skin contact. Health Hazards (Acute and Chronic): Overexposure to this material has been suggested as a cause of the following effects in humans: central nervous system effects, cardiac sensitization, and kidney damage. Signs and Symptoms: Eye Contact: Direct spray or vapors will irritate and may harm eyes Skin Contact: Product may cause irritation due to defatting of skin. Inhalation: High concentrations of vapors may irritate nose and throat and cause symptoms of intoxication such as dizziness, nausea, headache, or indigestion. Ingestion: Causes irritation, narcosis, and liver and kidney damage. Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure: Exposure to this material may aggravate any pre-existing condition sensitive to a decrease in available oxygen, such as chronic lung disease, coronary artery disease or anemias. Individuals with pre-existing heart disorders may be more susceptible to arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats) if exposed to high concentrations of this material. Other Health Warnings: Vomiting and subsequent aspiration into the lungs may lead to chemical pneumonia and pulmonary edema which is a potentially fatal condition. Potential Environmental Effects III. Composition/Information on Ingredients: Chemical Name CAS No. % Range Trade Secret Carbon dioxide Dichloromethane Ethylbenzene Toluene Xylene (mixed isomers)

Skin Contact: Wash with soap and water thoroughly. If adverse effects persist, get prompt medical attention. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse. Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If breathing becomes difficult give oxygen and get prompt medical attention. If breathing stops, give artificial respiration and get prompt medical attention. Ingestion: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING! Call Poison Control Center, physician, or hospital emergency room immediately. Aspiration of vomitus into the lungs can cause pneumonitis, which can be fatal. Note to Physicians: N/E V. Fire Fighting Measures: Suitable Extinguishing Media: Foam, Dry Chemical (B-C), Carbon Dioxide, water fog or mist. Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: Do not use water or any Extinguisher rated only A. An exception is listed above. Products of Combustion: May form carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, chlorine, hydrogen chloride, phosgene, and various hydrocarbons. Protection of Firefighters: Wear self-contained positive pressure breathing apparatus and protective clothes. Use shield to protect from rupturing and venting containers. At elevated temperatures containers may vent, rupture or burst, even violently VI. Accidental Release Measures: Personal Precautions: Persons not wearing protective equipment should be excluded from area of spill until clean-up has been completed. Environmental Precautions: Prevent run-off to sewers, streams, or other bodies of water. If run-off occurs, notify proper authorities as required that a spill has occurred. Run off to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard. Methods for Containment: Dike or contain spill and absorb with inert materials (sand, sawdust, absorbent sweeping compounds, rags, etc). Methods for Cleanup: Using a non-metalic scoop, place contaminated material into an approved chemical waste container. Where possible, vacuum spilled liquid using an explosion proof vacuum to recover material. Other Information: All equipment used with handling the concentrate must be grounded. If run-off occurs, notify proper authorities as required that a spill has occurred. VII. Handling and Storage: Handling Precautions: Use with adequate ventilation and proper protective equipment. Do not use and keep away from fire, sparks, or open flame. Do not puncture or incinerate container. Do not store above 120 F. Exposure to temperatures above 120 may cause container to vent, rupture, or burst. Storage Precautions: Do not used in confined area without proper ventilation. Contact lenses may cause further damage in case of splash into eye. KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN AND ANIMALS! VIII. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection:
